“Margaret was simply the best! This was my first time leaving my dog with someone and I have never felt more comfortable leaving my dog with her. She made sure to send plenty of pictures and videos of Cooper. He came home and slept for hours! Would highly recommend Margaret to watch any of your sweet fur babies!”
“Megan was wonderful. She treated Louie like her own family pet. I felt comfortable and confident that he was happy and well care of better than well. She communicated with me and made the idea of leaving my boy for so many days less stressful.”
“I think my dog was sad to come back home! Ashley and her family took excellent care of Harper, and made sure to send me regular updates while I was away. I highly reccommend them.”
“Our pups really enjoyed their stay- and we really enjoyed getting photo/video updates throughout the stay! Debbie and Eddie couldn’t have been nicer and really helped us out by watching our two on such short notice! Will definitely be using them again!!”
“Maureen was welcoming, friendly, and very accommodating to my little dachsund's idiosyncrasies! She sent me updates to ease my mind and ensure a worry-free vacation. I would not hesitate to have her take care of my girls in the future. I highly recommend Maureen!”
“I can’t recommend Maria enough! She takes amazing care of my fur babies which includes taking them on lots of walks, which they love. She really helped me out when I was in a bind and was able to take my fur baby overnight with very short notice. I am so thankful to have found her!”
“Awesome! She was accommodating, pleasant to work with and I felt confidant that my pup was well taken care of. Gina stayed in communication during my time away and was responsive to my texts and questions. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve owned a cat since I was 5! I know how to do litter and I understand cat language. If you’d be more comfortable, I’d be able to put my cats away in a separate room to care for yours alone and make sure they feel safe. However my cats love other cats and wouldn’t harm yours!:) I would have time everyday after 3pm as I don’t currently have a car so my mom would have to drive me after she works! On saturdays im free all day and sundays after church - so after about 12pm. I have nine cats who I take care of daily and will keep your cat company, if you have a dog however, I’d put my cats away just to be safe!
“Jennifer was great with our dog Molly when we went away over the weekend! She kept us updated with pictures and messages and took her for lots of walks. Thanks for taking such good care of her!”
About: I have experience pet sitting dogs for up to a week at a time as well as experience with my own dog Buster who is a golden retriever and cocker spaniel mix. I currently work full-time in the afternoon and evening. I collaborate with my mom who works in the mornings so that your dog would only be alone for up to four hours at a time. I keep the rules that you set for your pet when they stay at my home. When we go outside, I have an electric fence as well as a good size neighborhood to walk with your dog.
“We can’t thank Elaine enough for taking such great care of our dogs!!! They got lots of playtime outside, she sent great photos and was so easy to communicate with. It can be difficult to find a dog sitter to board two large dogs and I am so lucky to have found Elaine through Rover. Highly recommend!! We will definitely reach out again soon”
“Buddy is always so well taken care of at Beth’s. She provides great communication and excellent care. He loves being there playing with the other dogs, and I love that we never have to worry about the care and attention he’s receiving while he’s away from us. Thanks, Beth and Greg!”
“Keely took great care of my dog. She sent me pictures and updates throughout my vacation which kept me at ease since this was my first time boarding. Looking forward to working with her in the future!”
“If you love your dog but need to have someone else take care of them for a period of time, this is the place to go. Jodie arranged a “meet and greet”, then we scheduled this one night sleep over so my dog would get comfortable at her home. Now I feel very confident that I have the best possible care for my dog while my husband and I go on a longer-than-usual vacation.”
“Took our pup in overnight, with a couple hours notice. He came home very happy and well cared for. Her pack was very accepting of Pete so your dogo will have plenty of great company!”
“This was my first time trying Rover and Nyomi was amazing. Engages conversation and made me feel comfortable knowing my dog would be in great hands. I will definitely recommend Nyomi for all your pet needs. Thank you”
“Lexus is still sleeping from her fun filled weekend with her new friends. Elicia and her family were great with Lexus, very patient and understanding. Lex has a bit of separation anxiety and took some time to warm up, Elicia saw it through and helped my girl feel right at home. This booking was incredibly short notice like 12 hours notice and they did not hesitate to take my bestie in and watch her for the weekend. This is why I love Rover, great people, great service and most importantly the best fur baby care. 10/10 highly recommend Elicia and fam. I will be setting up playdates so Lexus can work on her socializing and tiny human interactions. Thanks Elicia, you are the best!”
“This was our first experience using Rover. Kristen made the process easy. She welcomed our 7 month old Shepherd mix and treated her like one of her own. Dora had a blast playing with Kristen’s dogs!”
“Unfortunately my little Ember got sick last minute before she was set to go to Ashley's. Ashley was still so sweet and willing to watch her, so we go her all packed up and ready. But our little lady Ember decided to get sick in her crate when we went to leave, twice. So we canceled the appointment and felt horrible about it. Ashley was so kind and very quick with communication during everything and I appreciate that so much! We will definitely be using her in the future if we need a sitter for Ember. :)”
